My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
"Buddy" is a 3½-yo neutered male GSD mix who is well-tempered, affectionate and playful. Buddy is friendly with everyone he meets. He loves attention and to receive belly rubs. He likes being around kids and is gentle with young children, as shown in one of the pictures on this page.
Buddy is good with other dogs. He presently lives with two male GSDs (Thor & Roscoe) who he gets along with great. Buddy likes to emulate what Thor and Roscoe do. If they get up and go outside he will follow. When he is with them on thjeir routine romps at the creek he will not run off to the water until one of the others does. See link to video elsewhere on this page.
Buddy is not good with cats.
Buddy is housetrained and exceptionally well-behaved inside. He has been inside for up to 12 hours with no accidents!
Buddy walks well on leash and has good recall off-leash.He is very good in crowds and around strangers.
Buddy rides well in a car and gets very excited when it comes time for a trip. He enjoys splashing in water (click here for a video), but I never saw him swim when he was at GSRSV's rescue ranch.
GSRSV rescued Buddy from the Stanislaus County Shelter on March 3, 2017.
Buddy's adoption fee is $210. He is presently in a foster home in Elk Grove.
